I wanted to extend some more thanks to everyone who offered their input on my earlier incubator related questions. We finally put everything together today, so I thought I would post of pictures of the in between steps we took and the finished product. It was a lot simpler than I expected it to be. All that is left is to put in the shelves (We are going to used the shelves that came with the wine coolers) and hook up the thermostat.
First, we had to clean everything:
Then we removed the light and taped the remaining fixture out of the way:
Then we installed the flexwatt, and just ran the cord out the bottom corner of the cooler. The seal doesn't seem to put much pressure at all on the cord, though if it seems to cause any issues we plan to just cut away a small strip of the insulation on the door. This is also where we plan to run out thermostat probe in:
And the two finished products:
Any thoughts or comments or suggestions are welcome.Thanks for looking!
